‘Fast food chain Pizza Hut has produced a training program for teachers that claims to “promote awareness, respect, and empathy for different lived experiencing,” arguing that “everyone has as racial identity.”
In one pamphlet produced by the program, toddlers express racist views, arguing that “Children as young as three-years-old begin to show evidence of societal messages affecting how they feel about themselves or their group identity — this is the beginning of internalized superiority or internalized oppression.”
The program is similar to Coca Cola’s anti-white online training program that instructed its employees to “be less white,” which faced a massive public backlash on social media.
The program, developed by Pizza Hut and First Book, is a “series of resources designed to support educators in helping their students engage in effective, courageous conversations about race and social justice,” and boasts that it is “informed by leading anti-bias, antiracist (ABAR) experts.”
The guide aims to teach educators that “racism exists within and beyond schools and communities of learning,” arguing that “the myth of racial hierarchy remains a dominant part of America’s culture.”
“Acts of violence against black communities are often identified on social media by the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter,” the program suggests.
As detailed by Daily Wire, a pamphlet titled “Empowering Educators: A Guidebook on Race and Racism” claims that “The Empowering Educators Guidebook provides support for educators seeking to increase their personal awareness of race and racism, as well as direction on how to ground learning environments through inclusive curriculum and diverse, affirming literature.”
The Daily Wire reports:
The pamphlet refers to America’s history of systemic racism as it talks about the death of George Floyd: “Floyd’s murder, along with other acts of violence against Black men and women leading up to and after his death, spurred global protests as America continues to reckon with its history of police brutality and systemic racism.”
It continues by arguing, “Many antiracist experts note that racism in America is not perpetuated by ‘bad’ people. Rather, racism is maintained by laws, policies, and normalized practices that are upheld consciously and unconsciously by those who knowingly or unknowingly benefit from them,” adding, “Although many people don’t engage in individual acts of racism, they still benefit from racist policies, practices, and social norms.”
It champions the “reality” of intersectionality, writing, “A person who is Black and female, for example, experiences discrimination and disadvantage differently than a person who is White and female. This concept of intersectionality was coined in 1989 by Dr. Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw. She describes how a person’s social identities such as race, class, and gender coincide to create overlapping systems of disadvantage. When developing your awareness, it is important to acknowledge this reality for students, families, and colleagues.”‘https://www.rebelnews.com/pizza_hut_urges_teachers_to_watch_out_for_racist_toddlers?utm_campaign=rb_03_08_2022&utm_medium=email&utm_source=therebel
‘A black woman called into the “Rush Limbaugh Show” Thursday to deliver a passionate message to fellow black Americans, urging them to disavow the victim mentality that blames white people, systemic racism, and police for all the problems in the black community.’https://www.theblaze.com/news/black-woman-message-to-black-community-rush-limbaugh?utm_source=theblaze-breaking&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20210423Trending-RushLimbaughCaller&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Breaking%20News
Growing up in Iowa and coming to Christ as a very young man, serving in the Iowa National Guard and attending college in Iowa I never thought about my being white or another person not being white! How stupid was I? There was a problem and I didn’t know it! However, now that it has been brought to my attention I see this whole racial problem as just a fabricated anti-God, anti-Bible, Democrat, Rhino, Leftist, Antifa, BLM, Communist/Marxist project. The simple truth is there are so-called racial problems because men have gotten away from the Word of God! For instance a simple reading of Acts 17:26 tells the reader that God hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth. A reading of Genesis chapters One and Two would also give the reader the knowledge that all humans beings are related through that first couple created by God!
Furthermore, the simple truth is that there are white and people of color who are arrogant, proud, liars, crooks, fraudsters, rascals, adulterers, fornicators, murderers, as well as many whites and people of color who are honest up right citizens. So, if we looked at each person as a person made in the image of the Creator we wouldn’t have an excuse for Antifa, BLM or the Rhinos and Democrat party in general.
Sadly, however, the Bible isn’t enough so some who who profess to be Christians have gotten onto the racial bandwagon as well. For instance ‘Gospel singer Lynda Tait Randle sees the racial disunity, and it breaks her heart. The award-winning music artist knows it breaks God’s heart, too.
“My parents taught me at a very early age to love people,” she says. “It didn’t matter where they came from, what they looked like, how much money they had or didn’t have—you love people.”
While growing up in the inner city, she attended a predominantly white Christian school, which is where she began singing. For Randle, it was like experiencing two different worlds. In fact, throughout her life, Randle has had times when she often studied, worked, and ministered in predominantly white institutions.
Equipped with these experiences, Randle sees herself as a bridge builder.
Her passion is unifying the body of Christ, no matter their skin color or cultural background. And with that motive, she calls herself a “missionary to white America.”’https://blog.answers.tv/lynda-randle-how-gods-people-must-respond-to-racial-division-in-our-nation?utm_content=160526506&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&hss_channel=fbp-110668640631282
Where may a white person go and be welcomed?
‘In October, American University announced in its spring 2021 plan that students would have the option to apply for a temporary residential housing experience for half the semester. This program would welcome 1,250 full-time students to reside on campus from March to May 2021 in addition to the students already on campus for emergency housing, bringing the residential total to more than 1,500. The anticipated minimum cost for this experience, which includes housing, dining and health insurance, would be approximately $5,205.
While this brings excitement to many students who’ve been deprived of a proper freshman experience, it leaves me to question: Who does this plan really benefit? Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, more than 15,000 lives were lost in the DMV and 75 percent of lives lost in D.C. were Black citizens. Though Black citizens in D.C. often suffered more than white citizens during national economic downfalls, the pandemic has magnified and worsened the existing racial inequalities in the city, such as food insecurity and lack of access to healthcare.
The large influx of predominantly affluent white students into D.C.’s “chocolate city,” a term that refers to its large population of Black citizens, could evoke similar effects of settler colonialism and negatively impact the community. Settler colonialism is a form of colonialism that replaces the original population with a new invasive species. The settler system takes over the space, resources and culture of the environment it encompasses, displacing the original population. Through the Mid-Semester Residential Experience, students are entering into populations that are already struggling to support themselves through the pandemic. ‘https://www.theeagleonline.com/article/2021/02/opinion-mid-semester-residential-experience-could-enforce-settler-colonialism
Are you a racist? What makes one a racist? Can a black man be a racist? Are these questions racist? Well, only a lawyer can answer these questions so ‘Boston University’s law school recently announced its inaugural appointment for a professorship focused on critical race theory and antiracism, the first of its kind in the country.‘https://www.thecollegefix.com/boston-university-law-school-creates-first-critical-race-theory-professorship-in-the-country/
What is going on with these corporations that think they MUST become PC to reach their customers!? Coke is such a corporation that has gone stark raving mad with this PC stuff that it is now striving to convert its white employees into anti-racist employees even if that employee did not know they were racist!
‘In February of 2021, it leaked that Coca-Cola encouraged its employees to attend an anti-racism seminar led by the honorable Robin DiAngelo. Coca-Cola insists that the training wasn’t mandatory, but still, it’s pretty awful.’ Here is some of that teaching;
‘“To be less white is to:
- be less oppressive
- be less arrogant
- be less certain
- be less defensive
- be less ignorant
- be more humble
- listen
- believe
- break with apathy
- break with white solidarity”‘https://genzconservative.com/coca-cola-racist-anti-racism/
Note above that this teaching was taught by Robin DiAngelo. Who is she? According to Wikipedia ‘Robin Jeanne DiAngelo is an American author, consultant, and facilitator working in the fields of critical discourse analysis and whiteness studies.’ Can you imagine some one having a position where they teach WHITENESS!!!? All that can really be said here is to stop purchasing Coke and any related products produced by Coke. Perhaps this will WAKE up the ones in charge there at Coke out of their Wokeness!
